the Saturday Bslf Holiday.
To the Editor Of the Appaal.

10 the Editor OF me hppohi
sm-It would be good thing II the
half holiday movement wero moro
generally adopted in this city. In The
Est II has prevailed for some years,
aud lie succsfs il unqnnstioned. Dur
ing the warm days, ltdies prefer 10 do
their shoppi' z IN the morning. aud II
requires o good deal 81 moral suasion
to Induce teen to 20 ont In the warm
afternoons 10 make their purchases.
Now that the movement has been ini-
uit.d In Memphis, the ladies' ought
10 take an 10 erect ia the matter and
stand BY the firms that show such
thoughifulness tos ard their employees.
The half holiday on Saturday, affords
an opportunity for mucl needed rec
rtation in summer; Il enables the en-
ploye to stir NJ his a.sping energies
and give better service during the
week. As matter Of humanity a.
well 90 economy Il commends itself TO
the consideiate employer. There
seems 10 be very little necessity for
requiring the lFdy attaches OF q dry
Roout utoItt iot lHu'hucoi W bthnu
behind the counter OF O hot
Saturday afternoon, in order 10 effect
q few uiflpg sales. Those firms thst
by giving their employees q half holl-
day on ga urday show that they feel q
personal interest In their welfare and
comfort, deserve the allegiance OF the
public. / understand d at the good
ladies' Of Memphis have not been
obllvious Of he movement, and they
have resolved that the generous mer-
chant shall not lose by hIs generosity.
Certainly they cannot Afford 10 range
themselves on avy side ,ave that OF
humanity, and l am sltitfied that they
will see 10 II that those who have
started the hall holiday movement In
Memphis do not receive any damage
In n pecuniary way for their llberallty.

CIVIL SERVICE.
Commissioner Oberly Gives His Views
in Regard to Removals.

WASHINGTON. Sept. 8.
Civil Service Commissioner Oberly has
sent, in response to an inquiry from Charles
n. Rowland chairman of the civil service
board of examiners at Cincinnati, commu-
nication embodying the views of the COM
mission respecting the rigat of a postmaster
to remove carriers and clerks except for
causes named in the civil service law. The
communication says:
The power OF removal is unrestricted, ex-
cept that a removal may not be legally made
for any one of the following causes: a.
Because person in the service has refused
to contribute to a political fund or for pO-
litical purpose. (2.) Because person has
refused to permit the appointing officer, or
any other person in the civil service, to CO.
cree his political action. For any other cause
any person in the civil service may be re-
moved legally,a person illegally removed
for any of the causes named cannot, under
any provision of the civil service act, demand
restoration. The law, fairly construed, they
say, is that entrance to the classified civil
service shall be upon the merit of the appl-
cant, without regard to his political opinions
or affiliations, and that continuance in the
service shall be upon the employees merit,
without regard to his political opinions or
affiliations. Therefore, the appointing officer
who appoints or refuses to appoint an appli-
cant because the applicant does or does not
entertain political opinions violates the law
and an appointing officer who removes an
employe because the employe refuses to rem
der political service in accordance with the
wishes of the appointing officer, because he
is not political partisan of the appointing
officer, also violates the law.

DIR. McGLYNN.
A PrOba bility that the Reverend Doctors
Case may be ReOpend at Rome.

New YORK, Sett. 9.
DR.. McGlynn's case may be reopened al
Rome.
The Brooklyn Standard Union learns that
when the controversy between McGlynn and
Archbishop Corrigan was hottest Rev. Dr.
Burtsell, pastor OF the church epiphany, OF
New York. proposed a careful defense OF
McGlynn and this was entru,ted to Cardinal
Gibbons when he went to Rome, but was sup
pressed by him in the interests of the Knig Is
Of Labor and the New Roman c. tholc Uni.
versity questions.
Bishop Moore of Florida, has nov interest
ed himself in the matter and DR.. Burtselrs
paper, with mass of other testimony, may
yet reach the Popes ears
1t i. also claimed that Cardinal Gibbons
and Bishop Keane overreached themselves in
their desire to control the university project
The idea originated with Bishop Spaulding OF
Illinois, and through him Miss Caldw ell OF
Baltimore. contributed $4,000 Bishop
Spaulding was entirely ignored at Rome,
however, by Gibbons and Kesne. Miss
Caldwell was so disgu,ted t1st she has with.
drawn her contribution.
Dr.. McGlynn, when questioned tonight
said the ststement was sub t4ntialy correct
Gibbons was instructed by the Pope to write
him a |, tier asking him t. go to Rome. He
never wrote.
The article further states that DIR. Burtsell
celebrated for his know ledge of church law
thinks that the accommodation of McGlynu
was grossly irregular, and will apply for q
reopening and appear as the doctors coun-
sell.

PORTLAND. Sept. ..
A special despatch t, the Portland Adver-
tiser says: The State department employ
es a. Washington are busy preparing for the
arrival of the fisheries commission. There
seems to be no doubt of the appointment of
American commissioners to meet the British.
Several clerks in the department have been
detailed to gather the mass of evidence which
has been taken from time to time by direction
of Congress. A synopsis will be arranged
in book form and with an index
Third Assistant Secretary Moore, who is
law secretary, says that he finds no precedent
as yet for the appointment of the commission
when Congress has been so hostile to the
formation of such a body.
Solicitor of the State Department Wharton
has no opinion On the subject and says he has
not been consulted
Sir Lioneil Ssckville West now admits that
Secretary Bayard and himself talked over the
sdvlsability Of commission previous to his
departure for England last June. There
was ar understanding to the effect that Mr..
Vests government should appoint the COM
mission first so as to give good cause for the
United States to follow.
Mr.. Bayard, it is said, called the govern
ment counsel in the fishery matter, Mr.. Will
liam L. Putnam, of Portland, into consulta-
ton and the commission idea was thus. adopt
ed
WASHINGTON, Sept 8.
The department of customs at Ottawa has
been informed of trick which has been
played on American authorities by the cap
tain of the Alfred Adams the British Colum-
bia sealing schooner. The Adams was seized
in Behrng sea last month by the United
States revenue cutter Rush and her seal
skins and fishing tackle were taken away. A
prize crew was put on board and the captsin
seemingly obeyed the order to navigate the
schooner to Sitka. But after having parted
company with the Rush, he headed the
Adams for Victoria, b. c.. where she ar
rived few days ago. The prize crew could
do nothing to compel the captain to proceed
to Stka as it is understood to have consisted
OF only two men, and the crew of the Adams
not having been removed was too strong tor
them.
The marine and fisheries department at
Ottawa is busily engaged in preparing its
case in behalf of Canada to lay before the
fisheries commission There was atsirst a
kick, accompanied with threats that the Ca
nauian government would not abide by any
decision arrived at by the commission. From
what can be learned today, Lord Salisbury
has manipulated matters in such way as to
reconcile the obstreperous Canadian into ac
cepting the commissions verdict il tle pro-
posed program is carried out.
